MacGyver

A true American hero.

You know... an old mentor of mine told me one time to never buy art as an investment. Buy it because you like it, and if it goes up in value, great. Same thing seems to apply here. Seriously though, nice rig. Have fun using it for all of its sporting purposes.

I think both of the other deputy Marshals have strong development potential, too.

I really enjoyed the interaction between him and his old boss. And, the scene where he turned in his gun - made me laugh outloud.

Man, that sucks. We'll keep both of your families in our prayers. I an truly sorry

Season finale last year may have been the best I've ever seen. Hoping season 2 lives up to it. Looks good so far.

Nice.

For some reason, it reminds me of the Amphicar made in the early 60's. There's a guy on Lake Rabun down in Georgia where our family has some cabins that will ride around in this thing on the quiet end of the lake. It's always really cool to see, but it's got to be squirrely. Even at idle speed, I feel like I might capsize him.

The Coast Guard's Manufacturer's Identification Database lists a Fox Custom Boats that would line up with this one. Unfortunately, they started manufacturing in 1991 and went out of business in 2001.

I bet it would turn on a dime. Of course, being that short with so little chine, I bet it would oblige you in taking on substantial water on that same dime.

10.5 feet is such a small waterline length - today we've got jet skis that are longer. I'm thinking this one might be a bit older. Maybe 60's vintage, though, it lookws to be in good shape if it was that old. I found another similar hull profile on a 1955 built boat by an unknown manufacturer. I'll keep digging around.

That one's got a trolling motor on it. Do you know who made the motor that was on your mom's? Starting in the late 80's, a lot of boats were made by captive manufacturers of the engine companies under one or multiple labels. This reminds me of some of the old Thai river racing boats. Those were handbuilt from plywood, but the hull dimensions and lines were basically the same. Any manufacturer who made these would have likely only made a few - the small size and seating capacity simply don't fit too many recreational boaters needs. That said, for someone who just wants to get out on a calm lake, a craft like this could be a lot of fun. I'll look around.

Hope springs eternal, I guess.

Just a reminder to keep your discourse civil. There's no reason for anyone to insult anyone else over a simple difference of opinion. Insults not only detract from your argument, they may also detract from your membership here.

Looking forward to it.

I paid 3.00 for the sight.

That's a shame.

Call s&w customer service. Cost me $3.

That must be the connection. Every time I eat at PF Changs, I feel like I'm eating Chinese food at starbucks.

Isn't Pei Wei owned by Starbuck's, who made a conscious decision not to post?

Nice.

They're no substitute for real training, but they are great for reviewing fundamentals. They're worth their price. And, no matter how good you think you are, it's always fun to watch someone who is really knows their stuff. I enjoy that in any discipline.

Apparently, they've decided not to quit until they have all of mine.

Yep. Looks like they're going to get another $40 out of me.

For all you Magpul junkies - you know who you are If you don't have the other videos in this series - Carbine I & II, Pistol and Shotgun, you need to get on Amazon this afternoon. Seriously, what are you waiting for?
